Trying to Book with Avios 330 Days out
I have booked one leg of an AA flight with my Avios points (330 days out), but cannot get the return because the flights have not become available on the BA website yet. The site seems to be about 10 days behind on releasing the AA seats. Has anyone else experiences this problem?

I doesn't surprise me, being that far ahead.
I'd blame things like Christmas and New Year Holidays delaying opening up reservations, rather than some evil plan

Redemption flights on AA can't be booked by their own AAdvantage members until 331 or 330 days before the date of the flight and availability doesn't show on the AA or BA websites until that time. So I don't think it's possible to book a flight any earlier than that.
Also there appears to be little or no availability on domestic AA flights for mid-November at present despite that being less than 330 days. See this thread.
